Show Lemon Kas Variety of Uses in Any Household The lemon has a variety of uses in the household aside from that of food. A slice of lemon kept near the sink in the kitchen is useful for removing fruit and vegetable stains from the hands, and helps to keep them smooth and soft. A half lemon placed in the washing machine makes the laundry beautifully white. Lemon juice and salt rubbed on an iron-scorched spot on white garments, then placed in the sun, will remove the spot. It is excellent as a dentifrice, and makes a refreshing mouth wash. Used in the bath it softens the water wa-ter and gives a delightful feeling of freshness and exhiliration. Lemon juice is healing to small sores or cuts, even though the first sensation may not be so pleasant. |
